PestNow Franchise for Sale

PestNow is devoted to our valued employees and franchisees, as well as to the communities whom welcome us. Our goal is to help others develop their greatest potential and maintain our position as the leader in our industry.

The success of our fortified business model is demonstrated by the remarkable success PestNow showed during the recent housing crisis and Real Estate melt down. As other companies faltered, struggled and failed….PestNow posted record numbers and growth. This concept requires a series of commitments, training and “out of the box” thinking that is unlike any in the country.
As a franchisee, you will be integrated into an open minded system that will train you, lead you and break the shackles that have grounded most companies for years. The demand for service in the PestNow system continues to escalate and is now being offered in many areas where potential franchisees are willing to embrace these ideas and methods. Why do others grow in poor economic times, why do other flourish and others fail? It has nothing to do with “luck” it has everything to do with your business model and your
commitment to work that model.

As a franchisee, you will be integral to the success of the PestNow franchise. It is important that you do your part to offer the most reliable and professional service possible. We are dedicated to assisting your success in our franchise system. For this reason, you can expect consistent support from the corporate office. As part of this support, the following services have been developed to assist you in all aspects of operating your PestNow franchise.

Site Selection - PestNow will provide you with input on business location selection, set-up, and design.

Training at headquarters as well as onsite start-up assistance covering key aspects of operating the business, from identifying insects to business management tasks.

Guidance on hiring and retaining qualified staff, to help keep your business running effectively.

Continual Support and Training - The training and support will never end as we strive to improve the PestNow system. We will continue to advise you with regard to the items you need to operate your business efficiently and effectively.

Approved Supplier List - We will assist you with ordering initial supplies from approved vendors.

Advertising, Marketing and Sales Support to help you reach out to your local community and get the PestNow name in front of your customers.

Franchisee Councils - This program is designed to foster communication between the franchisor and all franchisees, as well as among franchisees.

It is important for you to know that you will not be alone in this endeavor. We have 100 years of combined experience working through the challenges you will be facing and we are here to support you as you help us make PestNow the leader in the pest control industry. We have an open door policy so you have access at all times to the support you need to build a thriving and successful PestNow business.

The unique aspect to our system is that the corporate office will answer all phone calls, handle all mailings and mail invoices. Your priority will be growing and servicing customers. We use a state-of-the-art custom-built software application and all franchises get an internet phone (plug into the internet) that connects directly to the call center. All paperwork is also scanned in, enabling the call center to pull up and view any jobs that have been performed.

Making your franchise a success will require a concerted effort from you and your partners, if any, as well as all of your employees. Communicating between all parties effectively and appropriately is of the essence.

The work, services and jobs we perform are high margin, repeat business segments which provide for repeat business opportunities and a strong gross profit margin.

According to the CDC: "Consider using a professional pesticide company to apply pesticides at your home (to control ticks). Application of (tick pesticide) can greatly reduce the number of ticks in your yard."

According to the CDC: "More than 30,000 people in the U.S. have been reported with West Nile virus disease since 1999, and of those, almost 13,000 have been seriously ill and over 1,200 have died and many more cases have not been reported."

We have the opportunity to save lives, provide people the freedom from worrying about their children being outside and educate customers on how to manage the threat of pests and infectious disease.

Patrick Durkin contracted West Nile Virus on a golfing trip at the beach and almost died. We started this business to help others avoid these dreadful diseases! We don't want anyone to go through what our family members have had to endure! We offer full marketing support and ongoing training. This is not just a great business for us-it is truly a passion. Share in our pas- sion. Share in our bright future.

Plus, with the Back- yard Bug Patrol franchise system, this opportunity can be either full-time or part-time (with a business manager).

HELP OTHERS Not only do we protect our local neighborhoods from pests, but we believe in educating our community and giving back. We partner with local schools, sports teams, and other organizations not only to help raise money for them, but to raise the awareness of the dangers of tick and mosquito-borne illnesses. Together, we can make the community a much safer place and ensure that children don't get Lyme Disease in their own backyard!

Commission ExpressMinimum Liquid Capital: $100,000

Service:

COMMISSION EXPRESS® businesses advance real estate sales commissions to agents and brokers (customers) by factoring their commissions (accounts receivable). That is, we purchase pending commissions at a discount (usually 10%). The purchased commissions are usually redeemed within 30 to 60 days.

COMMISSION EXPRESS® businesses apply the general factoring process to the specialty of factoring real estate sales commissions. We purchase pending commissions on the basis of their quality as an asset, and the professionalism of our customers.

Why? Because real estate salespeople, even the most successful ones, are usually paid on a commission basis. Since commissions are not as predictable as salaries are, most traditional financial institutions are reluctant to deal with real estate salespeople.

As a COMMISION EXPRESS® franchisee, you will be helping customers manage their cash-flow in exchange for the opportunity to purchase pending commissions at a discount. It is a situation where a reasonable exchange of values takes place, and where everyone has an opportunity to benefit.

Benefits:

State Licensed Professional Customers

Customers are Members of Local, State and National REALTORS® Associations

Business to Business – NOT Consumer Related

Solid 80% Repeat Customer

Little or No Competition

State of the Art Web Site

High Profit Margin

Low Initial Investment

Internet Based Operating System

Open or Protected Territory

Can Be Operated From Home Office

The Customers:

Our customers are real estate professionals: principal brokers, associate brokers and salespeople, many of whom are "top producers." These are business people who face the cash flow issues which impact every business. Specifically, real estate professionals are likely to have recurring expenses for promotion, marketing, advertising and staff assistants. Therefore, to operate their businesses, our customers must have a predictable cash flow to meet equally predictable expenses. Unfortunately, real estate incomes depend on unpredictable closings, and so it sometimes happens that cash flow is not sufficient to meet current expenses.

Our customers return time and again because doing business with us is quick, reliable, and does not involve lengthy application reviews or flawless credit histories. Instead, our customers know that we are primarily interested in the quality of the asset being purchased.
